Google introduces personal results in your browser


The long-awaited change in the Google search engine has been started from today, when the engine is a fully customized site and adapted to our Google + account. Using the motto “Search, plus Your World”, the company introduced major changes that will be operational from today and will be extended to all users in the coming days.

Search, plus Your World

Your photos, your friends, your stuff…

Search has always brought you information from across the web. Now, search gets better by including photos, posts, and more from you and your friends. When signed in with Google+, you’ll find personal results and profiles of people you know or follow. You can even expand your world by discovering people related to your search.

A quick look at personal results

A little help from your friends

We all turn to people we know and trust for great recommendations. With personal results, you’ll see relevant tips, photos, and posts from your friends right alongside results from the web.

Just for you

Personal results are marked with a Search+ icon icon so you know they’re just for you. Because these results are personal and private, you’ll need to be signed in to Google to see them.

Control what you see

On any given search, you can toggle to hide personal results. To do this, simply click on the globe icon in the top right of your search results page. Learn more about personal results
